Francisco’s Fruits

2018 West, California, Road Trip

Today we had an errand to run. We visited the UPS store in Santa Paula, California to fill out our absentee ballots in the presence of a notary public and put them in the mail. Then we treated ourselves to a drive through the Santa Clara Valley to Francisco’s Fruits to load up on their incredibly delicious Dried Strawberries. We bought every single bag they had in the store today! We had fallen in love with them on a visit here two years ago. We also came away with fresh strawberries, pecans, licorice, and a Mexican candy. Lots of goodies for future snacks but we were hankering for one more immediate treat so we stopped by Anne’s Doughnuts where we shared the best eclair and apple fritter we’ve ever tasted accompanied by good coffee and friendly service! After that we headed back to the T@B for a quiet evening and a colorful sunset.

    And the pea hens are still waiting for the opportunity to tour the T@B.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!

Savoy at Sea 2025

The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
